Samsung lures former BlackBerry UK chief for EU business unit

When Rob Orr left his role as BlackBerry’s UK and Ireland chief earlier this month, we knew it wouldn’t be long before another company sought out his skills. Turns out, his final destination has been Samsung, where the seven-year RIM veteran will take up a vice presidential role in the Korean giant’s business-to-business telecoms operation. There’s an official release from Samsung after the break, but we’d have preferred it if Orr had posted something amusing to his Linkedin.
